Intended Use and Vehicle Placement

The presented seat belt buckle latch has been specifically designed for Mercedes W176 and C117 models, intended for installation on the rear right side of the vehicle. It is responsible for the correct fastening of the seat belt for the passenger sitting on the right side of the rear bench, which is crucial for the car's safety system to function.

Thanks to its dedicated placement, the element works with the factory seat belt, maintaining the correct geometry for the webbing path and the appropriate position of the buckle relative to the seat. This allows for comfortable fastening and unfastening of the belt, without excessive tension or twisting of the webbing.

Technical and Functional Characteristics

The seat belt buckle latch belongs to the group of components responsible for the mechanical locking and release of the seat belt. The design is adapted to the standards used by the vehicle manufacturer, which facilitates installation in the original mounting points in the body.

The most important functional features include:

• dedicated use for the rear right seating position,
• compatibility with the factory seat belt in the given model,
• maintaining the correct buckle position relative to the seat,
• operation of the standard belt latch mechanism.

Thanks to this, the element, after correct installation, restores the full functionality of the passenger seat without the need for interior structure modifications.

Original Origin and Fit for Mercedes

The seat belt buckle latch comes from the Mercedes offering, which means it is a part designed according to the vehicle manufacturer's requirements. Its original origin ensures proper fit with the bench seat structure, center console, and body mounting points.

The element is classified under seat belts and parts, making it a cohesive component of the passenger protection system. Using an original buckle latch reduces the risk of compatibility issues, such as incorrect buckle positioning, excessive play, or difficulties in inserting the belt tongue.

Product Condition and Application in Repairs

The offered buckle latch is in used condition, making it a sensible choice for post-accident repairs, replacement of damaged interior components, or restoring the functionality of the safety system in older vehicle models. A used component allows for an economical restoration of factory functionality while maintaining compatibility with the car's structure.

This solution is particularly useful in situations where a single belt system component needs replacement without affecting other parts. A correctly chosen rear right seat belt buckle latch allows for trouble-free use of the passenger seat after the repair is completed.
